from Hebrew ʿaḏin, "delicate"

Background Story

Adina comes from the Hebrew name עֲדִינָא (ʿAḏina), derived from עָדִין (ʿaḏin), meaning "delicate". The masculine name is borne by a soldier in the Old Testament, and the feminine Adina is from the same root but spelled differently in Hebrew. A separate entry treats Adina as possibly a short form of Adelina, with uncertain meaning.
